Heavy rains cause chaos in Bengaluru; K.R. Market sees major disruption

Heavy rains falling since Tuesday night have caused widespread disruption in Bengaluru. Water has entered the K.R. Market in the city center, causing traders to struggle to protect their goods, particularly flower vendors. Due to the rain, customer numbers have significantly dropped, leading to daily losses of thousands of rupees for vendors. Additionally, roads in areas including Shantinagar, Richmond Circle, Corporation, Majestic, Chamrajpet, and Malleshwaram are submerged, disrupting vehicle movement and causing severe inconvenience to the public. Near K.R. Circle, an accident occurred involving a BMTC electric bus and a private bus, alleged to be due to driver negligence, but no injuries were reported.
